cat hammock

You guys, I might have gone "slightly" overboard with my diy adventures this weekend. I made a hammock for our cats :).

It was a pretty easy project, and so very fun. Just two fabrics for top and bottom and a layer of batting all joined together, grommets installed in each corner + chain and S hooks and I was ready to install it under the bench in my sewing room as this is where the kitties spend a lot of time keeping me company each day.

Pretty cool, isn't it? I hope it will get lots of use.

And, in case you feel as crazy as I do and would like to make a hammock for your kitty as well, here's the link to a tutorial I followed.

Great idea, it looks so cozy! I hope the kitties enjoy it. I once made a hammock that hung off the side of my desk for Wilson, but he still much preferred being right on top of what ever I was working on!

I love this. We are fur-free at the moment, but our last kitties would have enjoyed it. Not together, but I can imagine one in the hammock and the ornery one trying to sneak beneath it and start the exact same type of sibling harrassment the human siblings do.

When I was young and single and would travel the world the mothers in the mercados in Mexico would have little hammocks under they're stall tables like this for their infants. I would always crack up when you'd see them walk by the baby and give the hammock a little rock with their foot;)
